Declare bankruptcy, and then ask the BK judge to tell Obama to BUTT OUT!

Bet they post an ad on the bulletin board down at the Detroit U.A.W. local hall.

This is the only way. People can attack GM management and Wagonner but good luck trying to run GM.
The UAW bled them to death. It is very hard to run a manufacturing company when the unions want you dead and the govt is also trying to bleed you to death by taxation, regulation, tort lawyers, the list goes on.
These people are marxists and have no clue on how to start or run a business.

When you think of it, bankruptcy is the best thing for Obama and his plans. All those retirees are gonna be frantic about their healthcare and will flood Congress with a call to make good on what their union promised them. And he can blame it all on Wagoner.

Why, it's almost as if it were planned!

They have to ease into a controlled bankruptcy to minimize trouble. I think the auto execs who just declared bankruptcy saying screw the government and the Unions would get killed.

Obama knows exactly what he’s doing! Just look at Obama’s impressive list of Fortune 500 companies that he built and ran.

I disagree.
The legal responsibility of a BK judge is to protect the value of the company.
The BK judge would be MUCH easier to deal with than these Communists in the Obama administration, or the Communists at the UAW!

I am talking about the danger of some disgruntled pensioner or fired worker shooting the executive. The legalities have little to do with it. If the bankruptcy is a controlled one where workers know what will happen and have SOME protection it will be safer.

Once upon a time there was a country that had lots of such posts. They called it the Political Officer.

***************
Agree — anyone visit the old Soviet Union? I did, and cars were a huge problem — there were two or three Soviet run “brands,” all of them garbage.
Anyone who could somehow score a “western” car was truly envied and had to protect his prize.
So much about Zero’s administration reeks of what I saw in Russia and East Germany, ca. 1970’s. We are careening down a very bad road folks!

...chief restructuring officer, whom the Obama administration would implant in G.M. to serve as its representative... More commonly known as a Political Commissar.
